Modiji, What Happened To Being People's Chowkidaar, Asks Rahul Gandhi

Rahul Gandhi led his party's attack on the government in parliament today, accusing it of insensitivity to how spiraling inflation is impacting the common man. Mr Gandhi chided the PM for failing to safeguard the interests of the poor. "You said you wanted to be the people's chowkidaar," he said. "It has been left to the Congress to serve as chowkidaar," he alleged, citing the PM's attempts to "snatch" farmers' land with a controversial proposal on acquiring farming land for industry that was shelved by the government after wide political opposition.
